New Year has already been on for two months. For some people, it means a change to hairstyle, a new wardrobe or a new plan. For others, it means some improvement to home or home decoration. One of the most effective ways to make a big difference to home is to change the lighting. Nearly anything goes when it comes to lighting. The lights come in various styles, from rustic, futuristic, retro inspired or space inspired, and the use of right lighting can bring home a nice change.


Lighting can be more creative than we may think and this is especially true if we have ever paid attention to the major lighting trends for 2015. Here are some lighting trends.


LED Lighting

LED lighting is one of 2015 lighting trends and it seems no new idea because LED lighting has too many benefits. Compared with other lights, LED is practical, eco-friendly and affordable. There is an increasing demand for LED lighting and now even a lot of decorative lights for holidays or special occasions take in the form of LED, say, LED Christmas tree lights, LED string lights, etc. They are more and more widely used in various occasions and we can see LED lights in the kitchen, bathrooms, home office or outdoor areas. They are trendy outdoor lighting used in driveways, garden, etc. The need for LED under cabinet lights and LED strip light is reported to be the largest part of the whole need of LED lights.


Pendant Lighting

Pendant lights are hot. They are one of the most versatile decorative lights and we can see pendant lights of various styles used in more and more areas, from kitchen, living rooms, dining room tables to coffee shops and more places that need special decoration for creating romantic atmosphere. When we say pendant lighting is a trend, we also mean the way of installing pendant lighting has new trends, as clusters of pendant lights are grouped together as one dramatic overhead lights or multiple pendant lights hung at different heights to create layer effect. Besides, DIY pendant lighting is also a trend now.


Chandeliers

As one of the frequently used decorative lights, chandeliers is in strong demand and there are a few trends for the chandeliers. Chandeliers are most often expensive decorative lights. Yet people are more interested in those value priced modern mini chandeliers which still will never compromise on style. The small-sized chandeliers seem right choice for areas with limited space, such as studio apartments and attic bedrooms. Besides, people tend to spend more on those chandeliers that can satisfy them in style, look and quality as well. Those attractive retro styled crystal chandeliers seem more hot. Chandeliers are no longer decorative lights used in dining rooms. We can seem them in kitchens or laundry rooms.


Lighting for Drawers or Cabinets

People choose to use special lights instead of flashlight in the drawers, closets or other small storage places. It is a trend that flashlight is no longer the popular choice for dimly lit space. There are a lot of elegant lighting for these formerly dark areas, such as LED strip lights, rope lights, and under-cabinet lights. They are lights for decoration or used as accent lighting or back lighting which are more often seen in commercial settings like restaurants and bars.
